Council’s ‘Guided Walks Programme’
The Mayor of Coleraine, Councillor George Duddy, commented, “The Borough of Coleraine is steeped in natural beauty and heritage providing the perfect basis for the Summer Walks Programme.
“Many people probably do not realise the wealth of interest and good walking there is to be had in the Coleraine Borough and this programme is a good way to find out more. It’s also an opportunity for walking enthusiasts and those who walk less often to go somewhere different, meet new people and have fun learning about their area”.
